I watch the Big Cats at the Zoo sometimes...especially the Jaguars?

Question

What do you think they have in mind when pacing their tiny cages. (Always the Jaguars have the smallest, the barest cages) and yet, these animals are very smart!

They scream from instinct.

I always watch them and want to help them. But they seldom look outwards at a person.

It is as if they are going slowly mad for missing their jungle habitats.

Does anyone know, if it is, that they have gone mad, from their instincts being reduced to that of prisoners, of hostages?

Answer 1

They yern to run wild with the brothers and sisters and devour the true freedom of their instinct. Humans on the other hand take less pride from our nature.  G

Answer 2

When they are pacing in there tiny cages. I think that they wish they were at home with the friends and family. They wish they could run around in the jungle. They wish they had freedom. If america is all about freedom why do we put animals in the small cages. They think and pace for freedom to be with their family.

Answer 3

they are thinking that you look like a tasty meal.

and how much fun it would be to stalk and hunt you down before eating you.

Answer 4

They were probably in captivity from birth

so they wouldnt know much difference

they probably just want to eat you

Answer 5

Perhaps. We can not speak to or other wise we would ask it what it wants.
